Just an update: Edie's EML is about 7' tall, and has a ton of fruit on it. The bad news is that none of my bagged blossoms set fruit. The good news is that I have it semi quarantined, with another EML from another source (the fruit looks identical,) about 50 feet from my other tomatoes. I definitely plan on saving seeds from it.

Wow, you were able to plant them the middle of March? I just put mine in the ground yesterday in Massachusetts. Will your plants survive the summer in Georgia?

Yes, March here in Z9a is warm. We can have a frost, but also very warm temps. All my plants have ripe tomatoes now. The battle is about to begin with the heat and humidity. The plants survive, but the quality diminishes. Hoping to get most of the crop in in the next month.
